If you live or work in Amsterdam then I recommend that you fill out this survey being done by the gemeente about making space for walking, cycling, public transit, taxis, and driving:

@notjustbikes that had an awful design. Apparently I have two conflicts, but can't work out what they actually are...

@mcv @notjustbikes it works ok on my phone. I just can't get past a pop up saying conflicts.

I've filled in the feedback form.

It's a shockingly bad design.

Has anyone managed to actually submit a response?

@notjustbikes @mcv What's the point of asking a question if they aren't going to allow the answers?

@notjustbikes @mcv I can't get a set of answers I'm happy with, and that it will accept. I do not want to give an answer I don't believe in.

There's plenty of space in the city. It's just not used properly. The Gemeente can do lots more. It's just not willing to. I can't find a response it will accept.

omg Chuck from Strong Towns wrote the best smackdown of a "why don't you just let people live the way they want to live" replyguy that I've ever seen.

It's so good that I'm willing to link to the Bad Site so that people can read it:

Chuck has SO much more patience for this bullshit than I do.

I guess that's why he's the advocate and I'm just the angry YouTuber.

Screenshot of a tweet from a typical replyguy who responds with a Tweet ending in "Maybe we could just let people decide what kind of place they want to live in."
